ORLANDO, FL--(Marketwire - January 31, 2011) - Actiance, enabling the safe and compliant use of unified communications, collaboration and Web 2.0, today announced the Actiance Compliance Module for IBM Lotus Connections. The new solution delivers archiving and compliance capabilities to IBM's social software for businesses, Lotus Connections.
Lotus Connections facilitates the collection and exchange of information through professional networks. It connects colleagues and users to like-minded communities through a dashboard-like view of current projects. Lotus Connections provides businesses with a single destination for building professional networks, connects communities of coworkers, partners and customers to make it easy to collaborate, and helps reduce the need for multiple social software applications.
Enterprises are facing increased regulatory, eDiscovery and compliance requirements, including logging and archiving all content, preventing data leakage and enforcing corporate usage policies across all applications, including social software. Actiance's Vantage platform, the basis for the new solution, provides security, management and compliance of enterprise social and unified communications. Vantage's policy framework allows granular policies to be defined between groups of employees and for communications with non-employees, ensuring enterprises remain compliant.
"Actiance and IBM have successfully worked together to help ensure that our customers compliantly and securely leverage the latest collaboration advancements," said Kailash Ambwani, CEO of Actiance. "Our new Actiance Compliance Module for IBM Lotus Connections, currently available to all IBM customers exclusively through IBM, is helping customers leverage the Lotus Connections solution while providing the right levels of compliance."
In addition, Actiance was selected to speak at Lotusphere 2011, where Vice President of Business Development Mark Sheridan will discuss 'Archiving and compliance for Lotus Connections,' a best practice approach to addressing compliance in a social environment.
